Tecr Gene Summary [Mouse]

Predicted to enable very-long-chain enoyl-CoA reductase activity. Predicted to be involved in fatty acid elongation; sphingolipid metabolic process; and very long-chain fatty acid biosynthetic process. Predicted to be located in endoplasmic reticulum membrane. Is expressed in several structures, including alimentary system; nervous system; respiratory system; sensory organ; and skeleton. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in autosomal recessive intellectual developmental disorder 14. Orthologous to human TECR (trans-2,3-enoyl-CoA reductase).

Protein Domains

A protein domain is a distinct structural or functional region within a protein that can evolve, function, and exist independently of the rest of the protein chain. These domains in mouse Tecr often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
